Jean Pierre Cosmetics, Inc. Launches Strong with Premium Towelette

Jean Pierre Cosmetics, Inc. Launches Strong with Premium Towelette

As single-step products are one of the fastest growing consumer segments, Jean Pierre Cosmetics is poised to become a leader in the field. Having released its first product, the Eye and Make-Up Remover Cleansing Towelette, the company is laying a strong retail foundation for offering national brand equivalents at lower costs to the consumer.

New York, NY (PRWEB) June 21, 2004

As single-step products are one of the fastest growing consumer segments, Jean Pierre Cosmetics is poised to become a leader in the field. Having released its first product, the Eye and Make-Up Remover Cleansing Towelette, the company is laying a strong retail foundation for offering national brand equivalents at lower costs to the consumer.

Founded in September 2003, Jean Pierre is a family-owned company headquartered in New York. Allan Savdie, President, made a name for himself with more than 20 years in apparel manufacturing in New York. He currently has independent real estate development projects in the city while helming the cosmetics firm. Albert Savdie, Allan’s son, is Vice President of Sales and in charge of the daily operations of the company. Albert’s career in sales began at the age of 13, and by 17, he planned and implemented a successful Internet perfume site that sold more than 800 different products. “The last job I had working for someone else introduced me to the health and beauty market, and I really got excited about taking high quality products and making them more consumer-friendly. I needed to be able to make decisions to ensure standards, so I formed Jean Pierre,” recalled Albert.

With laboratories that maintain the highest standards in research, testing and development, all Jean Pierre products are suitable for all skin types, pH balanced and hypoallergenic. They are richly formulated with rare flowers, herbs and natural plant extracts such as aloe vera, chamomile, green tea, cucumber and ginseng. With a delicate fragrance and no oily residue, they gently clean deep down into pores removing dirt, impurities and make-up (including waterproof formulas). “Our production and packaging process utilizes the most advanced equipment. All our processes are equivalent to famous labels, but we’re not charging our customers as such,” explained Albert.

The popular Cleansing Towelettes are washcloth sized and made of thick spun lace for strength and delicacy. Both the Pop-up Tubs and refill packs contain a generous 30 towelettes, premoistened with the exceptional cleansing formula.

On August 1, 2004, Jean Pierre will offer Foaming Facial Cleansing Pillows and Foaming Facial Cleansing Cloths, both dual-sided (textured for deep cleaning and smooth for conditioning) and enriched with vitamins and moisturizers. The foaming lather is activated by adding water.

“The new dry products complement the moist towelettes and really round out a cleansing system for nearly anyone’s particular needs. And all offer the convenience of performing several tasks in one easy step,” said Albert.

Just this month, Albert solidified a relationship with online retailer www. cosmeticamerica. com to carry all Jean Pierre products. The web consumer-friendly site will take secure orders and ship to the general public beginning June 28, 2004. The products are also available at more than 1000 select stores nationwide.

Francisan Sisters Feature “Mirror of Eternity” as the August “Song of the Month” Free Download

Francisan Sisters Feature “Mirror of Eternity” as the August “Song of the Month” Free Download

The Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity feature Composer Claire Rivero’s “Mirror of Eternity” as the August “Song of the Month” free download at www. fscc-calledtobe. org/living. asp.

Green Bay, WI (PRWEB) August 1, 2006

The Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity l feature Composer Claire Rivero’s “Mirror of Eternity” as the August “Song of the Month” free download at www. fscc-calledtobe. org/living. asp (http://www. fscc-calledtobe. org/living. asp).

Each month, specially selected songs and images are chosen to invite spiritual reflection, in particular young women discerning their call in life.

Composer Rivero explained “Mirror of Eternity,” drawn from St. Clare of Assisi’s phrase “Place your mind before the mirror of eternity”, was inspired by research into written works of women in religious communities from around the world. “I literally stumbled across this text in that process. I was stunned that I had never heard it set to music before, and from that point absolutely couldn’t get the text out of my mind until I began the composing process.”

As a composer, Ms. Rivero is influenced by Debussy, Benjamin Britten, Ralph Vaughan Williams. Her compositions include fifty original works for individual artists and choirs, four of which she has founded.

The “Franciscanized World” page is designed to help visitors see the world as Saints Francis and Clare did - realistically, compassionately, finding good and holy possibility in the substance and culture of everyday life.

"We’ve talked with our current and prospective candidates in their 20’s to learn the best way to reach young women interested in knowing more about us, and possibly joining us,” Sr. Julie Ann Sheahan, OSF, Directress of Vocations said. “We want to present our life as a viable option for them. Personal invitation is always best; however, we became convinced that real conversations can begin by using the language of images and music.”

Established in 1869, the Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity serve in Catholic health care, education and parish ministries in 11 U. S. dioceses (Green Bay, Milwaukee, Phoenix, Tucson, Honolulu, Chicago, Marquette, Jackson, Omaha, Columbus and Steubenville).

Class is back and so is Audrey Hepburn: A new book, How to be Lovely, presents Audrey Hepburn as a role model for the ages

Class is back and so is Audrey Hepburn: A new book, How to be Lovely, presents Audrey Hepburn as a role model for the ages

Audrey Hepburn is in fashion, as always. Published to celebrate her would-be 75th birthday, a new book, How to be Lovely: The Audrey Hepburn Way of Life makes clear that it is her character that will stand the test of time.

(PRWEB) August 18, 2004

“Living is like tearing through a museum. Not until later do you really start absorbing what you saw, thinking about it, looking it up in a book and remembering – because you can’t take it all in at once.”

Audrey Hepburn

How To Be Lovely

The Audrey Hepburn Way of Life

By Melissa Hellstern

While she is best remembered as a screen legend and a fashion icon, Audrey Hepburn was also a woman who survived an absent father, Nazi occupation, public divorce and miscarriages. Not to mention the pressures of fame.

Published to coincide with her would be 75th birthday, HOW TO BE LOVELY: The Audrey Hepburn Way of Life, (New York: Dutton, June, 2004) makes clear that through it all, it is her character that is sure to stand the test of time. Audrey Hepburn perfected the art of gracious living.

Based on five years of research, HOW TO BE LOVELY revisits the many interviews of Hepburn so that readers can hear her voice directly on universal topics of concern to women the world over – careers, love lives, motherhood, and relationships. More philosophy than biography, HOW TO BE LOVELY uncovers the real Audrey, in her own words, providing a rare glimpse into the women behind the mystique and illuminating her as a relevant role model for women today.

Hellstern showcases AudreyÂ’s thoughts on:

The importance of attitude

The meaning of success

The subtle art of flirting

The challenges of family and love relationships

The balance between career and motherhood

The beauty and health tips that kept Audrey “lovely”

The appeal of laughter

And the meaning of life according to Audrey

An award-winning writer, Chicago author Hellstern has shared her thoughts on Audrey Hepburn in Ocean Drive magazine, Pages Magazine, CS Magazine, The Chicago Sun Times, The Chicago Tribune and on WTTW-TV (PBS), WLS-TV (ABC-7), WGN Radio and Radio New Zealand, among others.

While she would be the last to say so, Audrey Hepburn was an expert in the art of being a woman. Through Melissa Hellstern, HOW TO BE LOVELY imparts whatever wisdom and insights Hepburn found along the way to the millions who grew up, or will grow up, wanting to be just like her.

Enhanced by rarely seen photographs, behind the scenes stories and the friends who knew her well, HOW TO BE LOVELY offers a rare glimpse into the woman behind the mystique and the definitive guide to living genuinely with glamour and grace.
